Morehouse, an HBCU located in Atlanta, has canceled its 2020 fall sports, including football, due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The school also will not compete in cross country, its other fall sport. In a letter to the Morehouse community, president David A. Thomas said the school will honor athletic scholarships.
"Like all of the decisions we've made related to COVID-19, this was a difficult one but was made with the health and well-being of our students and community in mind. It follows my intention to maintain a safe campus in hopes that our students will be able to return in August," Thomas said in the letter.
